WARSAW, Poland (AP) – Poland has arrested a director at the Chinese tech giant Huawei and one of its own former cybersecurity experts and charged them with spying for China, authorities said Friday.

Good evening and happy New Year! To the hundreds of you who signed up of the break, thank you and welcome to The Interface.

Businesses can no longer ignore the very real need for cybersecurity in what has become a complicated digital landscape with a seemingly never-ending stream of attacks and threats. Piecing together a strategy will no longer do. You need a well-developed security strategy – and that starts with onboarding the right cybersecurity talent into your organization. The Need for Cybersecurity Expertise Unless you’ve sheltered yourself from the news over the past few years, you know about the rapid increase in cyber threats. In 2015, 112 million healthcare records were breached. In 2016, the FBI received more than 2,600 official complaints about ransomware. By 2020, the average cost of a data breach will exceed $150 million. And with hacker attacks occurring every 39 seconds, the stakes couldn’t be higher for businesses. The problem is there’s a huge gap between the need for cybersecurity expertise and those who actually have the skills, experience, and qualifications … [Read more...] about How to Recruit and Hire Top Cybersecurity Talent
